“If we are arrested we will not request bail, but we will fight on to make society realise that no matter how many charges we face and how many times we face arrest, we will stand firm to tell the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) and society that we have not committed crimes. People should have a voice about the direction their country is taking,” Chonticha Jaeng-rew, an anti-junta youth activist from New Democracy Movement (NDM) currently facing arrest warrant said on 15 January 2016.
